Reduced Resolution Scan

Source file: create-a-reduced-resolution-scan.htm

Scan resolution can be reduced to decrease the file size of scan data. 

1. On the Create ribbon tab, go to the Scan group and select Reduced Resolution Scan.

   

2. Select the proportions of rows and columns to retain.

Note:  It is recommended to retain the same proportion of columns as rows.

Note:  The resulting scan will only contain the points at the intersections of the rows and columns selected to retain. Thus, retaining 1 in 2 columns and rows will reduce the overall file size to approximately 25% of the original.

3. Select the Replace existing scan(s) checkbox to overwrite the existing scans in the Database. Clear this to create and save as new scans in the scans container.
4. Click OK or Apply.
